    The search feature in the US version is not good. Try your search at nz.answers.yahoo.com. Their YA search is still set up like the US version used to be.

    Are you clicking on the Search Answers or Search Web Button ? sounds like your clicking on the Search Web Button Instead of the Search Answers button that may be the Problem

    I just tried a search and it worked, although Yahoo sticks lots of Ads on the page. You just need to read between the ads. If not working on a phone, you may need to used desktop mode. It is a terrible search feature.
